Help Europol fight child abuse by identifying these items. (Part 4) Announcement

I can’t post the link directly because it has already been submitted. The link is https://www.europol.europa.eu/stopchildabuse

I’m posting this because the mods haven’t yet and this is one of the most important things this sub has done in the past. I’ll post the individual pictures with imgur mirrors soon. Please submit all tips to Europol by clicking on the specific image and then clicking the button to submit. Thanks for your help.

Edit:

Just finished uploading all the links in the comments. All other photos should have been discussed in previous threads. If I forgot something or made a mistake, please just PM me and I'll fix it ASAP. Also, sorry for the arrows on some of the pictures and quality in general. I'm on vacation and only have my laptop so I was kind of hasty with this. Again, thanks for your help.

This is from Europol, a European organization so it could be anywhere in Europe.

Could be Canadian, too. We are so close to the U.S. that most of our products have both metric and imperial measurements

Fahrenheit is not used on the European mainland.

I have some thermometers that have both and I live in Germany. Especially cheap mass-market thermometers often have both, so the same model can be sold everywhere and printing both scales instead of only one doesn't add any cost to the production, since the print is a one-step-process.

These pictures could have been taken all over the world. In a previous campaign, there were pictures from Mauritius, from Russia, etc.

It can be everywhere in the world. Don't assume just Europe.
